- Storm-damaged greenhouses
- Timber decking, sub-frame and joists
- Summerhouses, cabins and home offices
- Concrete bases, paving slabs and footings
Why locals in Galway choose us
Galway homeowners choose us because we do the whole job — dismantle, remove, dispose and tidy up — for one fixed price. Fully insured, licensed waste carriers, and materials recycled wherever possible. Most quotes start around €250–€500.
Structures we dismantle in Galway
Timber sheds and workshops
Rotten feather-edge, shiplap and log-lap sheds are stripped panel by panel, nails pulled and boards stacked for recycling — no bonfires in a Galway garden.
Metal and steel sheds
Corrugated and box-profile sheeting is unbolted, folded flat and sent straight to scrap, which usually offsets part of the disposal cost.
Greenhouses
Glass is taped, lifted and crated before the frame comes down, so there are no shards left in the borders or lawn.
Decking and pergolas
Boards, joists, posts and concrete post-fixings all come out, leaving level ground ready for whatever comes next at your Galway property.
How a Galway shed removal works
011. Send photos or dimensions
Message us a couple of photos of the structure and rough measurements. Nothing to install, no site visit needed for most Galway jobs.
022. Get a fixed written quote
We email a fixed price, usually within 24 hours, covering labour, disposal and clean-up. No hourly rates, no day-of surprises.
033. Pick a date
Choose a slot at least five days out. We confirm the arrival window the day before so you're not waiting around.
044. We dismantle and clear
Our insured crew strips the structure by hand, loads out, sweeps the ground and sends you finished photos before leaving your Galway property.
What affects the price of a Galway job
We quote every job individually rather than working from a rate card. These are the factors that move the number up or down:
- Footprint and height of the structure
- Materials — timber, steel, glass, felt or concrete panels
- Whether the base or slab is coming out too
- Access: side gate, alley width and distance to the vehicle
- Volume of contents left inside
Where your old shed ends up
Everything we lift from a Galway garden is sorted at our depot before it moves on. Clean timber goes to biomass or chipping, metal to scrap merchants, glass to glazing recyclers and plastics to a licensed reprocessor. Only genuinely mixed residue reaches landfill, which is why we typically divert over 85% of a Galway shed by weight.
Access and parking in Galway
Older Galway streets often mean narrow side passages, shared driveways and restricted parking. We plan the route before we arrive: barrow runs where a truck can't get close, floor protection where the only access is through the house, and permits or cones where Galway parking is tight.
Getting ready for removal day
- Empty the shed of anything you want to keep
- Disconnect any electricity or water supply
- Unlock side gates and clear the access route
- Move cars off the driveway on the morning
- Let neighbours know if access is shared
Galway shed removal — your questions answered
How quickly can you remove a shed in Galway?
Most Galway bookings are completed within 3–7 days of your quote being accepted. During quieter weeks we can often get to Galway jobs sooner — mention "urgent" on your enquiry and we'll fit you in.
Can you also remove the concrete base in Galway?
Yes. Base removal — concrete slabs, paving, timber bearers — is offered as an add-on when we quote your Galway job. We break it up, load it out and leave the ground level and ready for its next use.
Do you need access through the house?
Usually not. Most Galway properties have side or rear access we can carry materials through, and we bring barrows and dust sheets. Where the only route is through the property we protect floors and doorways first — just flag it when you request your quote so we allow the extra time.
What do I need to do before the crew arrives?
Empty the shed of anything you want to keep, unplug and disconnect any power or water feeds, and make sure there's a clear route from the shed to where we can park in Galway. If you can't clear the contents, tell us and we'll price that in rather than turning up short of time.
Is there a minimum notice period?
Yes — we ask for a minimum of five days between your quote being accepted and the Galway job date so we can route the crew and book disposal capacity. Urgent jobs are sometimes possible if a slot opens up; mark your enquiry "urgent" and we'll let you know.
